Receiver's  report. 

On  motion  it  was  also

As  Receiver  for  property  in  New  Jersey,  I  am  in  possession  of  a 
plot  of  ground,  said  to  contain  about  ten  acres,  valued  at  $65,000, 
and  mortgaged  for  $65,000 ;  also  $950.73  in  cash,  and  expect  to  rea- 
lize a  few  hundred  dollars  more  from  the  sale  of  stock  and  fixtures  of 
an  Ammonia  Works,  now  useless. 

Of  the  book  accounts  I  have  collected  $47,327.83,  and  hope  to 
get  about  $12,000  more,  which  leaves  a  balance  of  $34,721.27  that  is 
probably  not  collectible.  A  large  part  of  this  amount  is  for  Baking 
Powder  and  Phosacid,  a  portion  of  which  was  consigned,  to  be  ac- 
counted for  when  sold.  Nearly  all  the  parties  say  that  the  goods 
have  spoiled  on  their  hands,  and  refuse  to  pay  for  them. 

I  have  sold  under  order  of  the  Court  the  lighter  "  Overton,"  for 
$1,900,  and  the  Geo.  Midland  Construction  Co.'s  stock  at  a  premium 
$2,000,  receiving  for  the  same  $7,000. 

The  shares  of  the  Dynamite  Projectile  Co.,  the  N.  Y.  Telegh. 
Co.,  and  the  notes  of  Donald  Cameron  &  Co.,  A.  R.  Case  and  Robt. 
Robinson  are  probably  worthless.  There  may  be  some  value  to  the 
Traders  and  Travelers'  Union  Shares.  A  note  of  Martin  Flynn  for 
$600  did  not  appear  in  the  Inventory,  but  is  now  an  asset,  and  proba- 
bly well  secured. 

The  total  amount  of  cash  received  is  $58,843.24.  Of  this  amount 
I  have  advanced  to  the  Bushwick  Chemical  "Works,  under  order  of 
the  Court,  and  for  which  I  hold  the  said  property,  $30,778.39  and 
$2,598.  84  for  other  purposes  under  order  of  the  Court  and  for 
salaries,  leaving  a  balance  of  $25,466.01,  $20,000  of  which  is  draw- 
ing interest  in  the  Mercantile  Trust  Co.  at  2^%  per  annum. 

The  Bushwick  Chemical  Works,  under  an  order  of  Court  and  by 
resolution  of  its  Board  of  Directors,  was  on  August  6th  placed  in 
charge  of  the  Receiver  to  conduct  to  a  successful  operation.  Ex- 
penses were  reduced  wherever  it  could  be  done  without  prejudice  to 
the  business,  and  the  works  are  now  running  at  a  profit.  An  inven- 
tory taken  on  Aug.  9th,  and  again  on  Sept.  14th,  showed  a  profit  for 
the  36  days  of  $7,236.26.  Another  taken  on  Oct.  14th  showed  a 
profit  for  the  month  ending  at  that  time  of  $5,478.63.  In  neither 
instance  was  any  allowance  made  for  wear  and  tear,  or  office  expenses 
in  New  York.

The  works  are  mortgaged  for  $250,000,  and  own  the  N.  Y. 
stores,  55  Fulton  Street  and  45  Cliff  Street,  estimated  to  be  worth 
from  $130,000  to  $150,000,  and  mortgaged  for  $80,000. 

Neither  the  Bavonne  Works  or  the  Buffalo  Chemical  Works  have 
asked  for  any  advances  from  the  Receiver,  and  both,  I  am  told,  are 
doing  a  good  business.
